Ulvan from Ulva ohnoi macroalgae : Green extraction method and physicochemical characterization of the ulvan

Abstract Ulvan belongs to the class of sulfated heteropolysaccharide and is the main component of the seaweed Ulva ohnoi (U. ohnoi). Ulvan has a chemical structure similar to fucoidan, chondroitin sulfate, and hyaluronic acid, which are commonly used to develop drug delivery systems.

Ulvan: A systematic review of extraction, composition and function

Algal Research, 2019
Abstract Species of green macroalgae (Chlorophyta) of the genus Ulva are edible seaweeds with a range of health promoting bioactive components. Ulva is high in dietary fibre which promotes gastrointestinal health and is linked to a reduction in the incidence of chronic diseases. The fundamental active constituent of Ulva is the soluble fibre ulvan, a

Long-type ulvan lyase in Alteromonas sp. is a major enzyme involved in degradation of ulvan extracted from Ulva ohnoi

, 2017
Abstract: Ulvan is one of the key sulfated polysaccharide components constituting the cell walls of green algae, Ulva. A little study has been performed so far on the ulvan degrading bacterial enzymes. In order to utilize ulvan effectively by breaking down to oligosaccharides and monosaccharide, we have studied ulvan-degrading bacterial enzymes.
